11. Scalar diversity and second-language processing: the Pragmatic Transfer HypothesisFederica Longo, Bob Van Tiel, Penka Stateva, Greta Mazzaggio, objavljeni povzetek znanstvenega prispevka na konferenci Opis: This study investigates the impact of language proficiency on the computation of scalar
implicatures (e.g., ”some” implying ”not all”) and compares the Pragmatic Default Hypoth-
esis and the Pragmatic Transfer Hypothesis. Six scalar terms were studied among native
English speakers, native Slovenian speakers, and Slovenian second-language (L2) learners
of English. The findings mostly support the Pragmatic Transfer Hypothesis, as the rate
of scalar implicatures in the English-L2 group generally aligned with rates in their native
language, Slovenian. This suggests that scalar implicature judgments in one’s L2 reflect
pragmatic patterns in one’s first language. Ključne besede: Second Language processing, Scalar implicatures, Scalar diversity Objavljeno v RUNG: 03.10.2023; Ogledov: 1942; Prenosov: 7

12. Collaborative lessons in a cross-border space : learning each other's language, literature and history on the basis of the CoBLaLT modelIvana Zajc, 2023, objavljeni znanstveni prispevek na konferenci Opis: In the paper we propose a new paradigm for teaching literature, language and history in cross-border territories from the point of view of cross-border didactics and cross-curricular collaboration at the higher elementary school level. Based on the CoBLaLT model, we propose interdisciplinar activities for students of two cross-border classes on both sides of the Slovenian-Italian border, who, while studying picture books written in Slovenian, meet via online platforms and live. They get to know each other, learn the languages of other students, experience literature and the art of illustration, and above all experience the complex history of the area where they live.

18. A CORPUS INVESTIGATION OF THE ORDERING OF SELECTED ATTRIBUTIVE ADJECTIVES IN SLOVENIANVesna Plesničar, 2022, objavljeni znanstveni prispevek na konferenci Opis: The paper investigates the question of attributive adjective ordering in
Slovenian against the background of the cartographic model of natural
language syntax (e.g., Cinque 1994, 2010, Scott 2002, Shlonsky 2004,
Laenzlinger 2005, Ramaglia 2014). Using the nearly 1.2-billion-word
Gigafida 2.0 corpus, we conducted a study in which we check the frequency
of attested orders of selected attributive adjectives belonging to thirteen
semantic categories and determine whether we can adequately predict
language use if we adopt a cartographic model as a working theoretical
framework, specifically the adjective hierarchy proposed in Scott (2002).
The results show that the probability of encountering an order that violates
the hierarchy is in general extremely small compared to the probability of
encountering an order that respects the hierarchy, which indicates that
the order of adjectives attested in the Slovenian corpus is by-and-large
compatible with the proposal that the order is governed by a hierarchy of
adjective projections. Ključne besede: generative grammar, cartography, attributive adjective string, language use, corpus Objavljeno v RUNG: 07.11.2022; Ogledov: 2045; Prenosov: 0 Gradivo ima več datotek! Več... |
19. Prosody and discourse structure in native and second language : hands on research using PRAATAlessandra Zappoli, 2022, objavljeni povzetek znanstvenega prispevka na konferenci Opis: This course focuses on the interplay between the speech sciences and the cognitive sciences, addressing the processing and acquisition of prosodic contours in Second Language (L2) Learning.
We will introduce the theoretical framework of Autosegmental Metric Theory of Intonation and ToBI annotation, and we will cover the key notions of signal processing and speech analysis with a hands-on-research practical session, adopting the open-source software PRAAT.
Furthermore, we will present studies targeting the cross-linguistic production of prosodic contours, focusing on the production of native speakers and L2 learners.
Finally, we will address the behavioral and neurophysiological cognitive studies on the auditory processing of prosodic contours, targeting native speakers and L2 learners, and targeting the linguistic and paralinguistic function of pitch in speech. It is suggested to have a laptop and headphones, and to download the software PRAAT at one of the following links:
